BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION-
The City's Community Development Department is responsible for overseeing land use and development activities, including planning, zoning, economic development, and building and safety services. It is the responsibility of the Community Development Department to ensure all development and/or building improvements comply with the development standards and 06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 240

requirements of the Yucaipa Development Code and California Building Code, while effectively promoting a high quality and aesthetically appealing built environment.

Since 1993 the City of Yucaipa has contracted building and safety services with Charles Abbott and Associates (CAA), to ensure that all development within the City of "Yucaipa complies with applicable State and County building codes, for the protection of the community's health and safety.

These contracted services are performed by building and safety consultants and include building official services, plan check review, authorization for permit issuance, building and safety inspections, and issuance of Certificates of Occupancy/building final. Together both the City and CAA staff serve residents, businesses, and the development community in a one -stop development review process, all within Yucaipa City Hall.

At the February 23, 2026 Regular City Council Meeting, Mayor Venable requested that staff solicit proposals to evaluate the existing services of building and safety. Therefore, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit proposals from qualified consultants to provide professional building and safety services, including building official, plan check, and inspection services, in support of the City of Yucaipa/Community Development Department.

In response to the RFP, on April 9, 2026, four (4) statement of qualifications and proposals were received and appropriately assessed through a comprehensive review process.

The four proposers were listed in alphabetical order:
=02M.-I
• Transtech Engineers, Inc
Willdan Engineering
• 4Leaf Inc
An evaluation panel comprised of staff members from the City's Engineering, Community Development, and General Services/City Clerk departments reviewed and evaluated the qualifications and proposal submitted in accordance with the City's Purchasing Policy and Procedures as well as the Public Contract Code. Staff selected only three firms to interview which were CAA, Transtech, and 4Leaf Inc. Willdan's cost proposal was not opened and returned to them.

Based on the interviews conducted, all of the firms are expected to maintain and/or improve the Community Development's level of service provided by CAA in terms of processing permit applications, plan checks, and building inspections. Additionally, all firms have experience in processing landscaping plans, Title 25 (Mobile Homes), and Fire Inspections.

The RFP's standard response times are:

Plan Checks
• Single Family Homes— 7 Business Days
• Commercial Projects —10 Business Days
• All Re-submittals/2"6 Plan Checks — 5 Business Days
06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 241

Following the comprehensive evaluation process, Community Development recommends that the City Council consider approving the Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Transtech. If Transtech is awarded the PSA, the existing building and safety agreement with CAA requires a 30-day notice, If Recommendation #5 is approved, it would authorize the City Manager or his designee, to terminate the existing Building and Safety services contract with CAA.

Building and safety revenues and expenditures are based on the volume and type of development projects submitted to the City. If Transtech is awarded the contract, their staff will work with Community Development to further evaluate the City's building and safety services process and procedures, including appropriate staffing levels. A summary of the past 12 months of the Building and Safety Division's revenue and expenditure is highlighted in Table 1.

SECTION 14. NON -EXCLUSIVITY AND COOPERATION.
(a) Non -Exclusivity. City reserves the right to employ other consultants, contractors, or City personnel in connection with the Services or other projects. This Agreement is non- exclusive, and nothing herein shall prevent City from providing for itself or obtaining from third parties any services similar or identical to those performed by Consultant. (b) Duty of Cooperation. Consultant acknowledges that City may have other consultants or City employees performing work related to the Services. Consultant shall provide active 06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 257

and professional cooperation to City and any third -party providers. This duty includes, but is not limited to:
(i) Timely participation in joint project meetings;
(ii) Sharing of Work Product, data, and information in native, open, and machine- readable formats (e.g., .csv, .dwg, .xlsx) as necessary for integration; and (iii) Providing reasonable access to Consultant's personnel to resolve technical "interfacing" issues.
(c) Integration Disputes. In the event of a conflict or technical "interface" issue between Consultant and another City service provider, the City Manager shall have the final authority to determine the appropriate resolution. Consultant shall implement the City Manager's decision at no additional cost to the City, provided such resolution is within the general Scope of Services.
(d) No Compensation for Interference. Consultant shall not be entitled to additional compensation or a "delay claim" arising from the City's exercise of its right to employ other consultants, except as specifically provided under Section 22 (Delays in Performance).

SECTION 15. INDEMNIFICATION AND DEFENSE.
(a) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 15, the following definitions apply:
(i) "Indemnified Parties" means the City and its elected and appointed officials, officers, employees, agents, representatives, and volunteers. (ii) "Claims" means any and all claims, demands, causes of action, proceedings (whether at law or equity, administrative or judicial), orders, judgments, losses, injuries (including injury to or death of any person), liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees, expert witness fees, and costs of litigation and investigation).
(b) General Indemnity. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Claims that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, the performance of the Services by Consultant, its officers, employees, agents, representatives, or subconsultants. This includes Claims arising from the active or passive negligence of the Indemnified Parties, excluding only those Claims arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties.
06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 258

(c) Immediate Duty to Defend. Consultant acknowledges that the duty to defend is a separate and distinct obligation from the duty to indemnify. This duty shall (i) arise immediately upon the tender of a Claim; (ii) be provided at Consultant's sole cost and expense; and (iii) exist regardless of whether the Consultant is ultimately found liable or negligent. (d) Defense and Settlement. City reserves the absolute right to conduct and control its own defense, including the selection of counsel (including the City Attorney's Office).

Consultant remains liable for all costs and fees. Notwithstanding any other provision, no Claim shall be settled, compromised, or otherwise resolved without the prior written consent of the City. City has the right to withhold consent to any settlement that: (i) involves an admission of liability or wrongdoing by the City; (ii) imposes non -monetary obligations on the City; or (iii) is deemed by the City Attorney to create an adverse legal precedent for the City. Any settlement entered into by Consultant or its insurer without the City's express written approval shall not release Consultant from its duty to continue the defense or to fully indemnify the City for any subsequent judgment or costs. (e) Design Professional Exception. Pursuant to Civil Code § 2782.8, if Consultant is a "Design Professional," the duty to indemnify and defend (including defense costs) shall be limited to the extent that the Claims arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Consultant.
(f) Subconsultant Flow -Down. Consultant shall require all subconsultants to execute an indemnity and defense agreement identical to this Section, naming the Indemnified Parties as additional indemnitees.
(g) Survival. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 16. INSURANCE.
(a) Maintenance of Insurance. Consultant shall, at its sole cost and expense, procure and maintain for the duration of this Agreement (and for any extended period required herein) the insurance coverages set forth in Addendum "1". All insurance shall be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best's rating of no less than A:VII, unless otherwise approved in writing by the City Manager or their designee.
(b) Evidence of Coverage. On or before the Effective Date, Consultant shall deliver to City original certificates of insurance and amendatory endorsements (including the "Additional Insured" and "Primary/Non-Contributory" endorsements) effecting coverage required by this Agreement. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements, at any time. (c) Primary and Non -Contributory. All insurance required of Consultant shall be primary to any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City, and the City's insurance shall be 06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 259

non-contributory. Any other insurance provisions in Consultant's policies shall be amended or superseded by this Agreement to ensure the Consultant's coverage responds first. (d) Notice of Cancellation. Consultant shall provide City with at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of any cancellation, non -renewal, or material reduction in coverage. If a policy is cancelled for non-payment of premium, Consultant shall provide at least ten (10) days' notice. Failure to maintain required insurance shall be a material breach permitting City to immediately terminate this Agreement or withhold payment. (e) Waiver of Subrogation. Consultant hereby waives all rights of subrogation against the Indemnified Parties (as defined in Section 15) for losses arising from the Services.

Consultant shall ensure all policies include a waiver of subrogation endorsement in favor of the City.
(f) No Limitation of Liability. The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by Consultant are not intended to and shall not in any manner limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations assumed by Consultant under this Agreement, including the indemnity obligations in Section 15 (Indemnification and Defense). (g) Subconsultants. Consultant shall ensure that all subconsultants maintain insurance meeting the same requirements set forth in this Section and Addendum "I", unless a lower limit is approved in writing by the City Manager.

SECTION 17. CONTINUITY OF PERSONNEL.
(a) Designation of Key Personnel. The Services shall be performed or directly supervised by the individuals designated in Consultant's proposal as "Key Personnel" or similar.

Consultant represents that these individuals possess the specific professional qualifications and experience upon which the City relied in awarding this Agreement. (b) Stability of Staffing. Consultant shall make every reasonable effort to maintain the stability and continuity of the Key Personnel throughout the Term. Consultant shall not remove or reassign any Key Personnel from the Services without providing at least fourteen (14) days' prior written notice to the City, unless such individual has left Consultant's employ or is unable to work due to illness or disability. (c) Substitution of Personnel. If any Key Personnel must be replaced, Consultant shall propose a substitute with equivalent or superior qualifications. (d) City's Right to Object. While Consultant retains the sole right to hire and direct its employees, City shall have the right to object to a proposed substitute if the City determines, in good faith, that the substitute lacks the qualifications or experience necessary to perform the Services.
06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 260

(e) Effect of Objection. If the City objects to a substitute, Consultant shall propose an alternative until a qualified individual is identified. Failure to provide qualified Key Personnel shall be considered a failure to meet the Standard of Performance under Section

6. (f) Independent Contractor Distinction. Nothing in this Section shall be construed as giving the City the right to control the means or methods of Consultant's work or to manage Consultant's internal human resources. The City's interest is limited solely to ensuring that the professional expertise and qualifications promised in the proposal are delivered throughout the project.

SECTION IS. ASSIGNMENT.
(a) Restriction on Transfer and Assignment. The expertise, experience, and reputation of Consultant are material considerations for this Agreement. Consultant shall not assign, transfer, or convey this Agreement, any portion hereof, any performance required hereunder, or any "monies due" or to become due hereunder, without the prior written consent of the City. Such consent may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of the City Manager.
(i) Change of Control. A sale, merger, or transfer of a majority interest in Consultant's business shall be deemed an "assignment" requiring City consent under this Section.
(ii) Effect of Violation. Any attempted assignment without prior written consent shall be null, void, and a material breach, entitling City to all remedies, including immediate termination.
(b) Use of Subconsultants. Consultant shall not subconsult any portion of the Services without the prior written approval of the City Manager. Before retaining any Subconsultant, Consultant shall provide City with:
(i) Identity and Qualifications: The name, license number (if applicable), and professional qualifications of the proposed Subconsultant. (ii) Contractual Flow -Down: A copy of the proposed subconsultant agreement that must expressly incorporate the indemnity, defense, insurance, and audit requirements of this Agreement, naming the Indemnified Parties (as defined in Section 15) as third -party beneficiaries.
(iii) Insurance Evidence: Certificates and endorsements showing the Subconsultant carries insurance equal to the limits required in Addendum "I". (c) Consultant's Responsibility. The use of subconsultants shall not relieve Consultant of its primary obligations under this Agreement. Consultant shall be jointly and severally liable 06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 261

to City for the acts, errors, and omissions of its subconsultants. Consultant shall be solely responsible for the timely payment of its subconsultants. (d) No Contractual Relationship. Nothing in this Agreement shall create a contractual relationship between the City and any subconsultant, and no subconsultant shall have any claim against the City for payments due to Consultant.

06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 262

SECTION 20. INSPECTION AND FINAL ACCEPTANCE.
(a) Right to Inspect. City shall have the right to inspect and review Consultant's work in progress at any time. Consultant shall cooperate with City and provide reasonable access to all draft Work Product, notes, and data to ensure the Services are progressing in accordance with this Agreement.
(b) Review and Rejection. City shall have sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of a final deliverable to accept or reject the work. Any rejection shall be in writing and shall specify the reasons the work fails to meet the Scope of Services (Exhibit A) or the Standard of Performance (Section 6).
(c) Tolling of Time. If City requests clarification, additional data, or minor revisions, the 60- day review period shall be "tolled" (paused) until Consultant provides the requested information.

(e) Extension of Cure Period. The City Manager may, in their sole discretion, extend the Cure Period if the Consultant demonstrates that a longer period is required for a professional correction.
(f) Failure to Cure. If Consultant fails to cure the deficiencies within the Cure Period, City may: (i) declare a material breach and terminate the Agreement under Section 21 (Termination of Agreement); or (ii) perform the work or hire a third party to do so, with all reasonable costs deducted from any amounts due to Consultant, provided that City shall provide Consultant with a detailed accounting of such costs within thirty (30) days of completion of the corrective work.
(g) Final Acceptance. City's "Final Acceptance" of the Services shall be conclusive as to the work performed, except for:
(i) Latent Defects: Errors or omissions in the Work Product that were not reasonably discoverable by City at the time of acceptance;
(ii) Fraud or Gross Mistake: Any willful concealment or mistakes so gross as to amount to fraud; and
(iii) Surviving Warranties: Any breach of the professional standard of care warranties set forth in Section 6 (Standard of Performance).
06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 263

(h) No Waiver. Neither Final Acceptance nor Final Payment shall constitute a waiver of any of the City's rights under Section 13 (Confidential Information; Release of Information), Section 15 (Indemnification and Defense), or Section 16 (Insurance).

SECTION 21. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.
(a) Termination by City (Convenience). City may terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time and for any reason, with or without cause, by providing written notice to Consultant.
(i) Effect of Notice: Upon receipt of notice, Consultant shall immediately cease all work, except as specifically directed by the City for an orderly "wind -down."

(c) Termination by Consultant. Consultant may only terminate this Agreement for cause (e.g., City's material failure to pay undisputed invoices) upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice.

06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 269

(c) Limitations on Proposal. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in the Consultant's proposal, no "standard terms and conditions," "limitations of liability," "indemnity carve -outs," or "proprietary rights" contained in the Consultant's proposal shall have any force or effect, even if the proposal is attached as an Exhibit. (d) Stringency Rule. If an obligation is addressed in multiple Agreement Documents at the same priority level, the more stringent requirement, in the reasonable determination of the City Attorney, shall govern.

SECTION 31. SEVERABILITY.
(a) General Severability. If any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement is declared or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect.

(c) Essential Purpose. If the removal or reformation of any provision under this Section would effectively defeat the "essential purpose" of the Agreement (e.g., the limitation on total compensation or the standard of care), the Parties shall meet in good faith to amend the Agreement to restore such purpose.

SECTION 34. FEDERAL FUNDS.
(a) Automatic Incorporation.

(b) Consultant's Duty of Inquiry. Consultant acknowledges that it is a "subrecipient" or "contractor" for purposes of federal law (e.g., 2 C.F.R. Part 200). Consultant has an affirmative duty to inquire with the City Representative as to the funding source of this Agreement. The absence of a specific reference to federal funds in Exhibit `B" shall not relieve Consultant of its duty to comply with Addendum "2" if federal funds are, in fact, utilized.
(c) Conflict of Terms. In the event of a conflict between the requirements of Addendum "2" and any other provision of this Agreement, the federal requirements shall govern to the extent necessary to ensure the City's eligibility for such funds.

(i) Provide any required federal certifications (e.g., Debarment and Suspension, Byrd Anti -Lobbying);
(ii) Adjust its recordkeeping to comply with federal audit standards; and (iii) Ensure all subconsultants are bound by the same federal flow -down requirements. [SIGNATURE PAGE FOLLOWS]

BUILDING AND SAFETY SERVICES

1.b3 Service Approach
Service Philosophy:

Our service philosophy is built on our "Customer Care" approach —delivering high -quality, timely, efficient, cost-effective, and customer -friendly services.
✓ Transtech employs a structured and efficient project execution approach that enables us to deliver the highest -quality products and services to the City.
✓ We start by working with the applicant early on and during plan review to help them prepare a set of plans which have all of the required information clearly and logically presented. ✓ When appropriate, we proactively provide recommendations to simplify complex details, and incorporate elements that are straightforward to verify in the field. Experience has taught us well that inspection time and applicant frustration can both be substantially reduced, while increasing overall compliance, by producing a better set of plans during the plan review process. And in the case of homeowners, this policy often demonstrates early on that the City really is truly a partner in a process that can often be a source of stress and tension for many applicants. ✓ This policy reduces the number of plan review rechecks required, allows the applicant to obtain a permit much sooner, and reduces the overall permit process time.
✓ Transtech provides all plan check comments on electronic files. All plan check comments are provided on pdf format electronically, as well as hard copies. Plan review corrections are written clearly and are fully detailed to explain the Code deficiency.
✓ To help the applicant better understand the problem, Transtech provides as much information during plan review as possible. We believe that if the applicant has a clear understanding of the problem, he or she can take the necessary steps to correct the condition. This policy reduces the number of plan review rechecks required, allows the applicant to obtain a permit much sooner, and reduces the overall time our staff is required to spend on that particular plan.

Unclear and/or cryptic corrections are never written, and all correction lists, except those written over the counter, are typed and printed on a laser printer.
✓ Our plan checkers confer early on and respond to questions from the architect, engineer, designer, applicant, etc.

When requested, our plan checkers also meet with the architect, engineer, designer, applicant, etc. at our offices to answer questions or for rechecks where the plan corrections. ✓ Our policy is to assist the architect, engineer, designer, applicant, etc. as much as possible, which helps eliminate complicated details, reduce construction costs, and/or provide details which are easy to verify in the field. ✓ All telephone calls or e-mails received are returned within the same working day, or the following day. We take pride in our "Same Day Response" motto.
✓ Responsiveness is an integral part of Transtech's "customer friendly" service approach. ✓ We will strive to enhance the City's image by public trust to be the most desirable community to live, invest and conduct business.
✓ Customer Care means highest quality customer service. Transtech is committed to providing "Customer Care" to the City, City's patrons, responding quickly and effectively to the walk-in, telephone, and electronic inquiries of the public related to our services.

Key elements of our collaborative approach include:
• Clear Roles and Communication: We coordinate with City staff to confirm scope, priorities, turnaround expectations, and points of contact.
• Consistency in Code Interpretation: We emphasize alignment with City -adopted codes, policies, and standard practices.
• Plan Review Coordination and Comment Resolution: We structure plan check comments to be clear, technically specific, and traceable to code sections.
• Quality Control and Technical Oversight: All plan reviews are subject to internal QA/QC by senior engineers or plan check supervisors prior to submittal to the City. This ensures technical accuracy, consistent application of City standards, and reduction of re -check cycles.
• Digital Plan Review and Tracking: We are experienced with electronic plan review platforms and City -approved document management systems. Our team maintains clear version control, marked -up plans, and comment logs to support efficient coordination among City staff.
• Regular Coordination and Responsiveness: We participate in coordination meetings/check-ins, as requested by the City to address workload balancing, schedule impacts, or complex projects. Our team prioritizes responsiveness to City staff to maintain momentum and meet service level expectations. • Professional and Cooperative Mindset: We approach all interactions with City staff in a collegial, solution -oriented manner. Our focus is always on supporting the City's objectives —efficient plan review, responsive and excellent 06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 290

Through this collaborative framework, we help the City maintain high standards of service, and predictable review timelines,
Plan Check Processing: When a plan check order is received, it is logged and reviewed by Building Staff and then assigned to applicable plan checkers. The plan check duration is monitored thru the plan check log data base, which generates messages at identified intervals to inform plan checker and supervising Sr. Staff so that they are aware of how the progress and status continuously. If any potential delay is monitored, necessary steps are taken, such as meeting with plan checker to review the schedule, workload, performance, and identify actions, including assigning additional staff, if necessary, to ensure timely completion of assignment.

Plan Check Coordination: Our plan checkers respond promptly to technical questions from architects, engineers, designers, and applicants throughout the review process. When requested, plan checkers are available to meet with project teams to discuss review comments, clarify code requirements, or conduct rechecks.

Our policy is to proactively assist applicants in resolving technical issues, clarifying questions, and identifying compliant solutions. This approach helps:
• Reduce unnecessary plan check complexity
• Minimize inspection challenges
• Decrease recheck cycles and field corrections
• Improve overall code compliance and plan quality
Our plan checkers are responsive to questions from architects, engineers, designers, applicants, and other stakeholders.

When requested, consultations or recheck meetings are held at our office or virtually via Teams or Zoom. We proactively assist applicants to clarify complex details, simplify construction requirements, and incorporate elements that are straightforward to verify in the field. This approach reduces inspection time, minimizes applicant frustration, and increases compliance by producing more accurate and complete plan submittals. For homeowners and small-scale applicants, this approach reinforces that the City is a supportive partner throughout the permit process.

1.b3 Service Approach
Service Philosophy:

Our service philosophy is built on our "Customer Care" approach —delivering high -quality, timely, efficient, cost-effective, and customer -friendly services.
✓ Transtech employs a structured and efficient project execution approach that enables us to deliver the highest -quality products and services to the City.
✓ We start by working with the applicant early on and during plan review to help them prepare a set of plans which have all of the required information clearly and logically presented. ✓ When appropriate, we proactively provide recommendations to simplify complex details, and incorporate elements that are straightforward to verify in the field. Experience has taught us well that inspection time and applicant frustration can both be substantially reduced, while increasing overall compliance, by producing a better set of plans during the plan review process. And in the case of homeowners, this policy often demonstrates early on that the City really is truly a partner in a process that can often be a source of stress and tension for many applicants. ✓ This policy reduces the number of plan review rechecks required, allows the applicant to obtain a permit much sooner, and reduces the overall permit process time.
✓ Transtech provides all plan check comments on electronic files. All plan check comments are provided on pdf format electronically, as well as hard copies. Plan review corrections are written clearly and are fully detailed to explain the Code deficiency.
✓ To help the applicant better understand the problem, Transtech provides as much information during plan review as possible. We believe that if the applicant has a clear understanding of the problem, he or she can take the necessary steps to correct the condition. This policy reduces the number of plan review rechecks required, allows the applicant to obtain a permit much sooner, and reduces the overall time our staff is required to spend on that particular plan.

Unclear and/or cryptic corrections are never written, and all correction lists, except those written over the counter, are typed and printed on a laser printer.
✓ Our plan checkers confer early on and respond to questions from the architect, engineer, designer, applicant, etc.

When requested, our plan checkers also meet with the architect, engineer, designer, applicant, etc. at our offices to answer questions or for rechecks where the plan corrections. ✓ Our policy is to assist the architect, engineer, designer, applicant, etc. as much as possible, which helps eliminate complicated details, reduce construction costs, and/or provide details which are easy to verify in the field. ✓ All telephone calls or e-mails received are returned within the same working day, or the following day. We take pride in our "Same Day Response" motto.
✓ Responsiveness is an integral part of Transtech's "customer friendly" service approach. ✓ We will strive to enhance the City's image by public trust to be the most desirable community to live, invest and conduct business.
✓ Customer Care means highest quality customer service. Transtech is committed to providing "Customer Care" to the City, City's patrons, responding quickly and effectively to the walk-in, telephone, and electronic inquiries of the public related to our services.

Key elements of our collaborative approach include:
• Clear Roles and Communication: We coordinate with City staff to confirm scope, priorities, turnaround expectations, and points of contact.
• Consistency in Code Interpretation: We emphasize alignment with City -adopted codes, policies, and standard practices.
• Plan Review Coordination and Comment Resolution: We structure plan check comments to be clear, technically specific, and traceable to code sections.
• Quality Control and Technical Oversight: All plan reviews are subject to internal QA/QC by senior engineers or plan check supervisors prior to submittal to the City. This ensures technical accuracy, consistent application of City standards, and reduction of re -check cycles.
• Digital Plan Review and Tracking: We are experienced with electronic plan review platforms and City -approved document management systems. Our team maintains clear version control, marked -up plans, and comment logs to support efficient coordination among City staff.
• Regular Coordination and Responsiveness: We participate in coordination meetings/check-ins, as requested by the City to address workload balancing, schedule impacts, or complex projects. Our team prioritizes responsiveness to City staff to maintain momentum and meet service level expectations. • Professional and Cooperative Mindset: We approach all interactions with City staff in a collegial, solution -oriented manner. Our focus is always on supporting the City's objectives —efficient plan review, responsive and excellent 06/22/2026 City Council Agenda 315

service.
• Flexibility and Scalability: We remain flexible to shift workloads and assign additional resources as needed and directed by the City.

Through this collaborative framework, we help the City maintain high standards of service, and predictable review timelines,
Plan Check Processing: When a plan check order is received, it is logged and reviewed by Building Staff and then assigned to applicable plan checkers. The plan check duration is monitored thru the plan check log data base, which generates messages at identified intervals to inform plan checker and supervising Sr. Staff so that they are aware of how the progress and status continuously. If any potential delay is monitored, necessary steps are taken, such as meeting with plan checker to review the schedule, workload, performance, and identify actions, including assigning additional staff, if necessary, to ensure timely completion of assignment.

Plan Check Coordination: Our plan checkers respond promptly to technical questions from architects, engineers, designers, and applicants throughout the review process. When requested, plan checkers are available to meet with project teams to discuss review comments, clarify code requirements, or conduct rechecks.

Our policy is to proactively assist applicants in resolving technical issues, clarifying questions, and identifying compliant solutions. This approach helps:
• Reduce unnecessary plan check complexity
• Minimize inspection challenges
• Decrease recheck cycles and field corrections
• Improve overall code compliance and plan quality
Our plan checkers are responsive to questions from architects, engineers, designers, applicants, and other stakeholders.

When requested, consultations or recheck meetings are held at our office or virtually via Teams or Zoom. We proactively assist applicants to clarify complex details, simplify construction requirements, and incorporate elements that are straightforward to verify in the field. This approach reduces inspection time, minimizes applicant frustration, and increases compliance by producing more accurate and complete plan submittals. For homeowners and small-scale applicants, this approach reinforces that the City is a supportive partner throughout the permit process.

exceptionally well qualified to provide the requested services to the City. And unlike firms that rely heavily an subcontractors or rotating staff, CAA provides consistent personnel who become an integrated extension of City staff.

CAA's Certified Building Officials have assisted jurisdictions in achieving high Insurance Services Office (ISO) ratings. The ISO evaluates each community on a scale of 1 to 10 based on the administration and enforcement of building codes and the mitigation of losses from natural hazards. The City of Yucaipa currently holds a rating of "2" for both residential and commercial classifications, and GAA's consistently strong ISO performance reflects our commitment to maintaining this high level of service through effective code enforcement and risk reduction.

CAA is an industry leader in cross -training employees in order to streamline the inspection process. Each inspector is able to perform multiple discipline inspections, which is both cost effective for the City and simplifies the process for contractors, causing less wait times for inspections to be approved. Our approach to training is ongoing and not just occasional, assuring clients of work that is in full compliance to current standards. In addition, because our people are well trained, they face no learning curve and are able to get to work immediately. This is why staff regularly attends, teaches, or sponsors training seminars to ensure we are proficient in the most relevant issues in our industry. Because of CAA's dedication I" INTERNATIONAL to training and our commitment to complying with State Law, we sought out the i � CODE COUNCIL International Code Council's (IOC) Preferred Provider Program to establish MIL PREFERRED ourselves as a leader in building code training_ Consequently, CAA was M; ��,�� PROVIDER
recognized as an ICC Preferred Provider, only the 14th in the Country to receive such recognition.

Our inspectors are ICC certified and have extensive experience with the enforcement of the State adopted Codes and Standards.

y ..
as rod a up g
Each project is established within EZPIan upon receipt, allowing both 4LEAF and City staff to track progress in real time. Our system ensures that all submittals are logged, monitored, and documented throughout the entire review lifecycle.

Task 2 — Completeness (Triage) Review
All submittals undergo an initial completeness review by a Plan Review Project Lead to confirm that all required plans, calculations, and supporting documents are included. Any deficiencies are immediately communicated to the City to prevent delays.

Task 3 —Assignment & Scheduling
Once a complete submittal is verified, the project is assigned to the most qualified Plans Examiner based on discipline and complexity. Turnaround timelines are established, and the project is logged into our system the same day to ensure timely routing and tracking.

Task 4 —Technical Plan Review
4LEAF performs a comprehensive, multi -discipline review to evaluate compliance with applicable codes, ordinances, and standards. A detailed correction list is prepared, clearly identifying required revisions and providing actionable guidance to facilitate efficient resubmittals.

Task 5 — Quality Control Review
Prior to release, all correction comments undergo a senior -level quality control review to ensure accuracy, completeness, and consistency with applicable codes and City requirements. Finalized comments are transmitted to the City along with a detailed transmittal summarizing project information, including construction type, occupancy classification, square footage, and fire protection requirements.

Task 6 — Recheck & Coordination
Resubmitted plans are reviewed promptly for compliance with previous comments. 4LEAF works collaboratively with applicants and design professionals to resolve outstanding issues, minimizing additional review cycles and expediting approvals.

*Larger complex project reviews can be negotiated to achieve the best possible pricing. 4LEAF has a proven track record of working with municipalities to provide expedited reviews with special discounted pricing.

Pick-up of all submittal packages, including any paper or hard copy sets, will be performed by 4LEAF staff within 24 hours of the City's phone calf or e-mail. While 4LEAF can accommodate physical plan handling, all plans will be digitized, and we pride ourselves on utilizing EZPIan (ELAS) as our primary digital platform to streamline submittals, tracking, and communication.
4LEAF prefers to pick up and deliver plans in person when necessary to relay information that may be pertinent to the project and to maintain consistent communication. At no additional cost, 4LEAF staff will transport plans to and from the City upon a phone call to the 4LEAF office or by emailing [email protected].

Document Control
When plans and documents are received for review, 4LEAF's Plan Review Manager and Document Control Technician analyze the project, create a job number, and complete a Job Setup Sheet. This form identifies the jurisdiction, applicable contact information, and all project -specific design criteria and notes. All plans, including paper submittals, are digitized upon receipt and uploaded into EZPIan (ELAS), which serves as the central platform for tracking and managing all plan review activities. 4LEAF tracks all plan reviews and associated documents within EZPIan (ELAS), providing real-time visibility into the status and location of plans throughout the review cycle. This system grants City staff full access to monitor progress, review comments, and track each project in real time. In addition to EZPIan tracking, 4LEAF maintains Qualificatiow,X&mibe to the Cik of Yucaipa '2�

all records within the City's permitting system, operating as an extension of City Hall to ensure consistency, transparency, and compliance with local procedures.

Jobs are transmitted through 4LEAF's EZPIan Review Portal, which tracks initial and subsequent reviews and is accessible to the client. The City and its customers can view the plan review control log through the portal. Plans and associated documents are then distributed to a 4LEAF team consisting of Plan Review Engineers and qualified Plan Examiners and Accessibility staff, as applicable. Our team performs detailed analyses to ensure conformance with state codes, referenced construction standards, and City amendments. 4LEAF's methodology, "The Effective Use of the Codes," is reinforced through proprietary and jurisdictional . Upon completion, the Plan Review Manager conducts a final quality control review and forwards comments or approvals to the client's pre - designated contacts.
4LEAF strongly emphasizes off -site electronic plan review to maximize efficiency and accessibility, Our digital plan review process allows plans of any size to be reviewed, marked up, and distributed electronically, reducing turnaround times while supporting a cost-effective and environmentally responsible approach. Through EZPIan (ELA5) and a secure online portal, City staff, property owners, contractors, developers, designers, and stakeholders are provided direct access to submit plans, monitor status, and review updates in real time. This approach enables seamless collaboration and ensures transparency throughout the review process.

To further enhance digital review capabilities, 4LEAF utilizes Bluebeam Revu, a powerful platform for PDF editing, markup, and collaboration. Our offices are L BLUEBEAM equipped with large-scale monitors to facilitate efficient plan review, and our integrated "Green Line" approach minimizes paper use while accelerating review timelines. This streamlined workflow supports consistent and timely permit issuance, typically within 5-7 business days.
